QB Donald Tabron II, No. 2 pocket passer in '28, picks Texas A&M - ESPN

Texas A&M secured one of the top quarterbacks in the 2028 cycle Saturday with a commitment from four-star quarterback Donald Tabron II.

The 6-foot-4, 190-pound prospect from Detroit's Cass Technical High School is ESPN's No. 2 pocket passer in the 2028 class. He announced his pledge to Texas A&M over finalists LSU and Oregon on Saturday evening following visits with each program in June. Tabron joins defensive end Chance Archangel (No. 289 overall) as the second member of Aggies coach Mike Elko's 2028 recruiting class.

In an interview with ESPN, Tabron credited Texas A&M offensive coordinator Holmon Wiggins and quarterbacks coach Joey Lynch — who were promoted to their current roles this offseason — and recent visits in his decision to choose the Aggies.

«As soon as [Wiggins and Lynch] got their jobs in January, they've been in communication with me ever since,» Tabron said. «It's been consistent from then to now. And then I've been there three times this year. Being able to see it in person, going for a game last year and just being able to build a really good relationship with them made the difference.»

Tabron is the No. 26 overall recruit and No. 3 overall quarterback prospect in the SC Next ESPN Junior 300. A two-year starter at Cass Tech, Tabron threw for 2,819 yards and 35 touchdowns as a sophomore last season while leading the program to the Michigan Division I state title game.

Tabron visited Texas A&M last fall and returned for the program's junior day in January. He was back on campus in June and spent time with multiple members of the Aggies' top-ranked 2027 recruiting class, including five-star offensive tackles Kennedy Brown (No. 4 overall) and Mark Matthews (No. 11), who sold Tabron on Texas A&M's
